Just checked the script. Orcs have infravision, skeletons do not.
Interestingly both have gas immunity, which I wouldn't have guessed for orcs. Xinroch also has added teleport control.

Even worse, necromancers have intrinsic infravision too. So the only things you're likely to fool with invisibility in GC6 are the zombies and kamikaze dwarves.

System would indicate in graphic if person is mounted on horse or not.
Same system also show if person mounted on boar, elephant, polar bear etc.
Or if person mounted on ass.
Ivan find mounting on ass funny.

i have 2 amulets of ESP and crazy favor with dulcis. i may try taming the frog. never thought of that. any reccomendations on screen capture software? i wish i could get a wand of mirror. i have a wand of cloning I have used twice, not sure if there is a third charge in there or not, and a scroll of charging. I hate to waste it on armor scrolls, but i suppose if it keeps me alive its worth it.

Screen capture software for IVAN?
Well, you could try FRAPS or Camtasia Studio.

yes, but there are so many zombies, it's really useful. Mostly because they're annoying and just get in the way, but I've also contracted leprosy so many times just from crossing from staircase to staircase in GC6

You can check if wands have charges by dropping them in a shop. Dead wands sell for something like 36 gold, while any charges left will bring the price up. No need to accept the offer, just see what the shopkeeper will give you. I wanna say over 400 for wand of cloning. Even if it's dead, you can stand on a pile of four scrolls and apply the wand to get one last use. For wands of mirroring, you can wield an extra scroll in each hand for a total of six mirrored scrolls. I think wand of cloning ignores equipment though. Prt Sc button, between F12 and scroll lock, takes a screen grab. Open paint or gimp and paste to save a file.

...why have I never done this?!
Also if we're talking about taking screenshots rather than video, FRAPS has a screenshot tool that just saves screenshots into a folder every time you press the corresponding button. No need to paste into paint or resize either. But that would involve getting FRAPS, if you're not so inclined.

I personally have absolutely no problem with exploiting the hell out of everything I can in IVAN. Once I actually win the game I might try to finish it legitimately. My current playthroughs tend to involve artificial limbs, mustard gas, stacked mine traps, sabotaged sumo wrestlers and copious amounts of enchantments stolen from the library.

Depends on what you mean, yes you should chat with it until you're certain you've milked it for all it's worth, but for example if you sci-talk a giant dark frog, kill it, and resurrect it again it will not help you anymore (wasted some charges before I figured this one out)

I'm confused. So scitalks are only effective for a limited time per monster?
So technically I can only talk to a Mystic Dark Frog X amount of times before he becomes useless, but I can then go and tame another Mystic Dark Frog and get another X amount of beneficial scitalks?

That is correct. That applies to all NPCs and monsters.
I believe this is similar to scroll enchantments... at first you have a high chance of getting the bonus but the more you talk to them, the lower that chance gets, until it's basically 0.
